No success. I really do not know where is the problem.
My system is: Mamory: 4 GB 2 x Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU T9300 @ 2.50GHz processors Graphics GeForce 8600M GT/PCIe/SSE2 OS type Debian(testing) 64bit Now I have used a testing pictures set: 23.000 pictures on the USB external drive approx. 250 GB data I tried two versions of DT with both I have the same problem: 1.0.4 – from Debian testing distribution. 1.1+1050~ge73064b – build from the sources(downloaded today) The cmake output: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. -- multiarch triplet detected: x86_64-linux-gnu -- Determining version -- Found Gettext -- Found msgfmt to convert language file.

Is it a problem? A clean DT with a few pictures works just fine but after importing 23.000 pictures (library.db has 292 MB) the problem of switch between darkroom and light table is the same – it takes very long time. Also starting DT on my system takes (measured with time command) from DT execution to unfreezing DT GUI: real 3m4.740s user 0m30.586s sys 2m32.550s I have tested also on more powerful computer: Memory: 6GB 8x Intel Xeon CPU E5420 @ 2.50 GHz Operating system Debian testing 64bit Pictures on NAS disk. 35.000 pictures imported into DT. The starting time is not much shorter : real 1m28.625s user 0m26.182s sys 1m7.588s Any ideas how to find a problem? regards On Tue, Feb 12, 2013 at 10:03 AM, Marcin Sikora <[email protected]> wrote: >>Waren > > That’s good news!!!
